Аннотация The last Sochi Economic Forum emphasized that the Russian business failed to have a full realization of the fact that the world has changed. It became more Asian. The number of those who attended the block revolved around economic sanctions against Russia, manifold exceeded the audient of the Asian block, and lectures met this fact with raised eyebrows. After all, development of Russian business, in general, had an emigration nature: originally any business person went to the USA or in Europe as a tourist, looked about, launched a company and, simultaneously, got a residence permit, set up any simple operations, made new connections, relocated children for permanent residence and education, and, eventually, mean to live peaceful and secure old age at the place of “registration” of the company. As regards Asia, the situation is much trickier. The Russian business and political elite are not ready to relocate for permanent residence in China, Malaysia, Singapore or Korea. Nor yet they are ready to send their children to get education there, and, certainly, not regard Asia as a place for spending peaceful and secure old age.
